Management report types

Different information requirements

There are different information requirements, therefore the 80 standard reports are divided into five groupings. All reports can be exported into various file formats, such as Microsoft Excel.

1. Business reports

Each TimeLog business report is based on one specific issue. For example, the internal/external analysis report provides management with relevant data in the form of each employee’s time consumption for internal and external projects.

2. Status reports

Status reports offer production insight by showing on which projects or customers your company has worked in a given period. These reports provide a status based on the dimensions supported by the system, e.g. current employee cost rates as well as potential and realised work values.

3. Process reports

Process reports focus on work processes, e.g. approving weekly timesheets, outlays, travel expenses, etc. These reports contain information on a given employee’s status in relation to a specific work process.

4. Project portfolio reports

For management, TimeLog provides a range of reports to retrieve data from multiple projects, enabling managers to view several project statuses in one report. One example is the project portfolio report, which collects the entire company’s project activities in a single screen.

5. Analysis reports

Analysis reports are based on the widest possible approach to filtering and grouping data, rather than specific business requirements. A good example is the pivot report. It allows you to filter project registrations from all dimensions, group them and finally view them in graphic or table form. Another good example is the contribution analysis, which includes data on contribution margins per project, customer and employee.
